Unhappy steering column bush kit

Hi I have a bit of an issue I went searching for the steering column bush kit everywhere and I'm not able to find it I did ask a company that does sell them If I could buy from them they said they had no stock but I'm not sure if that's the truth cause some people have complained about them cause there service is bad they seem to not want to deal with anyone if you have not bought there chassis and few people have told me that they have been rude to them so I need some help with the steering bush kit is there an alternative way of working around this or what can I do does anyone have any advise for me please

Ditch the original, there is too much play within time.

Get one of these but you will need the part the goes on the triangular part of the shaft to change it to round.

Its the top bit in this pic:

Here is a pic of ash's. It is positioned inside the drivers footwell as during iva he got asked to move it. I'm not sure what test you have to go through in SA.

I'm not Too sure if you can get it in SA, it's not from a car it's just an industural bearing. Have a google the codes that are in the eBay description and you may be able to find it.
